GL-RM1PE-UK-4PXGL.iNet Comet PoE (GL-RM1PE) PoE-Powered Remote KVM over Internet
The Comet PoE takes everything useful about a hardware KVM and strips the cabling down to one wire: Power over Ethernet (802.3af/at) carries both data and power, which is exactly what you want in a dense rack, a network cupboard, or on a UPS-backed switch. If PoE is not available, a USB-C input (5V/2A, PD-compatible) does the job instead.
Remote sessions run at up to 4K@30 FPS with H.264 encoding and 30–60 ms latency — testers describe it as feeling physically connected — with two-way audio for support calls. The 32 GB eMMC stores ISO installers, system snapshots and logs at ~35 MB/s read, so you can rebuild a dead machine remotely without an external drive.
Access is browser-based from Windows, macOS or Linux with no app to install, with Tailscale support and a fully self-hosted server option for those who want zero cloud dependency. It is a one-time purchase with no subscription fees, ever — from UK stock with support from CLI Secure.
Key features
- PoE-powered — one Ethernet cable for gigabit data and power (802.3af/at), ideal for racks and cable-tidy installs; USB-C 5V/2A backup input.
- 4K@30 FPS video — crisp remote sessions with H.264 hardware encoding at 30–60 ms latency, not limited to 1080p.
- 32 GB eMMC storage — keep ISO installers, snapshots, recovery tools and logs on the device at ~35 MB/s.
- Browser-based access — control from Windows, macOS or Linux with no app and no complex VPN setup.
- BIOS-level control — manage headless servers and machines without IPMI, including boot menus and OS installs.
- Two-way audio — hear and be heard for troubleshooting, calls and live collaboration.
- Smart mouse controls — relative mouse mode keeps cursors aligned on high-resolution screens; mouse jiggle prevents sleep during long tasks.
- Remote power management — built-in Wake on LAN, included ATX board, and optional Fingerbot for physical power buttons.
- Self-hosted option — one-click deployment on Linux/Ubuntu (2 cores, 2 GB RAM); no personal information collected. One-time purchase, no subscriptions.

Frequently asked questions
What is a remote KVM?
A remote KVM (keyboard, video, mouse) connects to a machine's video output and USB ports and lets you control it over the internet at the hardware level — you see the real display, including BIOS screens and boot menus, and control it even when the operating system is dead or absent.
How is this better than remote-desktop software?
Remote-desktop software consumes system resources, requires a supported and working OS, and stops the moment the machine crashes. Comet PoE works independently of the target's OS: troubleshoot a frozen server, reinstall an operating system from a stored ISO, or reach a router with no IPMI — all from a browser.
Why PoE?
One cable delivers both gigabit networking and power, which removes the power brick from the equation — perfect for cramped racks, network closets and UPS-backed switches. If your switch has no PoE, the USB-C port (5V/2A, PD-compatible) powers it instead.
Can I power machines on and off remotely?
Yes. Wake on LAN is built into GLKVM, the included ATX board connects via USB for reliable wake-up, and the optional Fingerbot physically presses a power button — even on devices with no network connectivity.
Are there subscription fees?
No. It is a one-time purchase with browser-based cloud access included, and you can self-host the access server on your own Linux machine for complete control. GL.iNet collects no personal information in self-hosted mode.
